PS.... Don't laugh.... you guys eat vegemite....!
Actually Bob ,

I have eaten genuine Canadian Maple syrup, at the Hedges place. Very very good stuff. Havent tried it out of a Blitz Manifold though.......is there a strict Canadian ritual to follow???

Challenge to you Canucks....... try some Vegemite & dont go crazy with the amount - THIN scrapings on HOT toast with lots of butter. The essential effect is it makes the butter saltier.

Warning, if you spread it like Jam or Peanut butter with out being a seasoned veteran - youll reply to this thread in abusive tones!!!

Go on! Give it a go!

Default Confused by Cliff......

A "marmite" is the pot you cook the pork roast laced with homegrown garlic.

After supper, we take the marmite and leave it outside in the cool Fall air for the crunchy fat to congeal....... the next morning you scrape the marmite's bottom and spread it on fresh bread..... the scrappings are called "minoune". and loosely....very loosely translate from French to what you would call a young kitten....P****

Hello Bob,

Just to clarify what Cliff and Tony were talking about see the pictures. Also how to apply marmite and vegemite and what can happen if you have too much of either. Thanks to Google image search for the photos

Kind Regards
Lionel

G'dayTony

Next time you are spreading your vegemite nice and thick on your toast - something to think about.

Kind Regards

If every jar of Vegemite came with one of those I would spread it like peanut butter!!!
